  • Der Himmel über Berlin

    This is pure unfiltered euro arthouse, it’s the uncut shit. I wouldn’t get half of it, even if I understood German. And the first-name only dedication to Yasujirō Ozu, François Truffaut, and Andrei Tarkovsky, what a blowhard.

  • Paris, Texas

    I wasn’t expecting a deep exploration of masculine role models in a film involving peep shows. The pink angora sweater gains a different meaning once you see the context. Travis is not Bickle.

  • Lisbon Story

    Classic meta film about itself, where the characters fight with the meaning of the it all, with rants about advertising while containing product placement. The Madredeus soundtrack is appropriately eerie.
